If many don't recall Crazy night, they should at least remember Heart of the Night! They were hits. Poco was originally named Pogo and started out as Buffalo Springfield. Pure Prairie League's most famous hit was Amie. Heart of Her Own was big too. There were a lot of great bands in the 70s:

BTO
Kiss
Boston
Lynyrd Skynyrd
Fleetwood Mac
Foreigner
Led Zeppelin
Kansas (greatest instrumentals)
ZZ Top
Doobie Brothers
Eagles
Black Oak Arkansas
FogHat
BadFinger
Styx
Van Halen
Queen
REO Speedwagon (they used to play the Dells quite often)
Blue Oyster Cult
Pink Floyd
GrateFul Dead
Gordon Lightfoot (I had every album)
(had to add Journey here - vocals were great)

Now I've really aged myself! Some started in the 60s and some spread into the 80s. When I was 15 I went to an all day outdoor concert at Mile Hight Stadium that featured Santana, Fleetwood Mac, Gerard, and the Beach Boys. I saw ZZ Top in Germany on a small stage.



>I don't know that Poco had any hits per se -- "You Better Think Twice" or "A Good Feelin' To Know" maybe? -- but at the height of country rock
>popularity in the mid to late 1970s they were probably the first country rock band most people would have named. Great steel guitar and vocal harmonies.

>>>I loved Cream back then. I also really enjoyed Pure Praire League and POCO. Timothy B Schmit got his start in POCO before he joined the Eagles to play bass (he made a habit out of replacing Randy Meisner). Update, I forgot to post that according to him, there will be another Eagles album.
